Cutting Optimization
Next-generation 1D/2D algorithms for profiles, sheets, and glass.
The problem
Manual cutting plans leave money on the table. Operators eyeball layouts, profiles and sheets are cut with avoidable offcuts, and there's no fast way to compare arrangements — so material waste quietly piles up job after job.
The solution
Cutting Optimization runs new-generation 1D and 2D algorithms that nest parts for maximum yield across profiles, sheets, and glass. It squeezes the most usable pieces out of every stock length and panel, cutting scrap and feeding cleaner output into the rest of the production and logistics pipeline.
Everything you need, built in
Key features of Cutting Optimization.
1D & 2D algorithms
New-generation nesting for linear profiles and bars (1D) and flat sheet or glass layouts (2D).
Multi-material support
Optimize profiles, sheets, and glass with material-aware cutting logic.
Waste reduction
Squeeze the most usable parts out of every stock length and panel to minimize offcuts.
Offcut reuse
Track and reuse usable remnants so leftover material isn't thrown away.
Fast re-optimization
Recalculate layouts instantly when quantities or stock change.
Pipeline-ready output
Hand optimized cut results straight into load planning for end-to-end efficiency.
From setup to results in four steps
-
01
Add your parts and stock
Enter the parts to cut and the available stock lengths or panels.
-
02
Choose 1D or 2D
Pick linear (profiles, bars) or flat (sheets, glass) optimization for the material.
-
03
Optimize the layout
Run the algorithm to nest parts for maximum yield and minimum waste.
-
04
Export and produce
Send the optimized cutting plan to production and on into load planning.
Built for real operations
Profile & bar cutting
Minimize offcuts on linear stock with 1D optimization.
Sheet & glass nesting
Lay out flat parts on panels with 2D optimization for the best yield.
Material cost control
Cut recurring scrap to bring down material spend across every job.
Common questions
1D optimizes linear stock such as profiles and bars along a single dimension, while 2D nests flat parts like sheets and glass across length and width for the best yield.
Profiles, sheets, and glass, each handled with material-aware logic so the cutting plan fits how that material is actually produced.
